Pip Bartlett's Guide to Unicorn Training

Pip Bartlett has a way with magical creatures. But even she is challenged by Regent Maximus, a unicorn who is afraid of everything. With the help of her friend Tomas, Pip has to get Regent Maximus ready for a big unicorn competition, even if Regent Maximus would rather do anything else than compete.

Making matters worse, someone mysterious is trying to win the competition by cheating, and if Pip and Tomas don't stop the bad things from happening, it's not only Regent Maximus who will have reason to be afraid.

MINIATURE SILKY GRIFFIN

The Miniature Silk Griffin is the most popular variety of domestic Griffin. It was popularized by an Atlantic City gypsy dancer who kept several pets and used them in her stage shows. Devoted, companionable, and trainable, they make excellent pets.

EMERALD DUNKING DUCK

The Emerald Dunking Duck is a species of wild duck commonly found in the southern United States. In the 1950’s, ladies considered it fashionable to keep these in their gardens. Unfortunately, this particular species does not tame well, and hospitals report Duck attack injuries increased tenfold until they were banned from homes in 1963.

BITTERFLUNK

The Bitterflunk is one of the Americas’ more delightful and fascinating species. These social animals travel by bounding, sometimes up to 21 feet in the air. Their natural fearlessness and intense attraction to the color blue sometimes make them a pest in urban areas, but generally the Bitterflunk has adapted well to life alongside humans.
